I saw another nut-allergy person saying these were safe, and I thought "surely not?" because they used to have a may-contain warning, but indeed, this box says "made in a nut free facility"! I was still paranoid so I emailed the company, and they said that they used to use cashew milk in their vegan version, but now they use oat milk (yes!! oat milk supremacy!!) and the box is accurate. So, I bought these as they were the only flavor I could find near me. They're very cute: in an egg-like container, small, round, covered in (rice?) flour. Honestly I don't really like mochi very much (or most Japanese food, despite it being very bouba), but I do like ice cream and desserts so here we are. It was as expected: the ice cream inside is nice, strawberry, average, and the outside is very glutinous and also rice. It too is strawberry flavor, but like, not enough. I will say the texture is very fun, and it's a bit like eating a toy or a ball of hard wax covering melted wax. Or whatever. And I like that they come in pre-portioned 70calo snack size. I will definitely buy these again and if I can find the other non-gross-sounding flavors I will buy those too! (miss me with that dubai chocolate with "natural pistachio flavor", you couldn't pay me any amount of money to try that one!!)
Overall
my taste: 7/10
my cost: 3/10
